Freud believed unconscious desires caused phobias.
A friend of his, Max Schur, helped him commit suicide by injecting him with morphine.
Generally speaking, yes, phobias can lead to compulsive disorder. Still, it depends on the severeness of the phobias.

Generally phobias occur when the sufferer has had a bad experience with the object of their phobia. Common phobias that stem from these types of experiences are spiders, dogs, and the fear of being ridiculed. It is also possible that we biologically inherit some phobias from our parents. Others develop phobias later in life and are never able to determine the cause. The important things to remember are 1) you are not alone, and 2) there are successful treatments for the condition.
sure it is. i know people who have phobias about 10 or 20 differentthings. i bet somewhere there is a person who has phobias against phobias
This question cannot be answered in terms of "ever." Each person is an individual, and it is not impossible that someone, somewhere, at some time developed some sort of phobia as a result of night terrors. But generally speaking, the one problem would not necessarily cause the other.
Sigmund Freud proposed the theory of unconscious mind. The Freudian psychology challenged deeply rooted ideas and tradition since he treated people with logical psychology and opened up the possibility that each action has a probable cause.
fixation
The Oedipus complex is believed to be caused by a child's unconscious desire for the parent of the opposite sex, along with feelings of rivalry and hostility towards the parent of the same sex. Sigmund Freud proposed that this complex emerges during the phallic stage of psychosexual development, typically between the ages of 3-6 years old. It is considered a normal part of child development according to psychoanalytic theory.
This is: False Explanation: Freud learned about his patients using the psychoanalytical method, and not by conducting laboratory experiments. The psychoanalytical method involves clients telling the therapist about their childhood memories, dreams, desires, and relationships so that the therapist can uncover the client's unconscious thoughts, feelings, and beliefs that might be influencing the client's behavior and leading to mental illness. The psychoanalytical technique involves making unconscious behaviors, thought, beliefs and emotions conscious so that clients can face them and work through them with the guidance of the therapist. Therefore Freud, sought to learn about and cure treating mental illness in his clients by working through the root cause of their- childhood experiences and traumas, unconscious patterns, suppressed feelings, etc.
Phobias are irrational fears that cause the person afflicted to over-react to whatever they fear. Arachnids are spiders, so this is the irrational fear of spiders.
It is not only children, but adults, too. The root cause of a phobia is the fear, the definition of phobia, but it is because children do not know enough about the world, so instead of embracing and learning about it, they fear it, causing children to have phobias. It also may be due to past experiences that children have phobias, and those past experiences are fear-related.
